1/4 (50g) cup white sugar

1/2 tsp vanilla

1 (medium-large) egg

As many chocolate chips as your heart desires (I usually use a bit less than 1/2 cup)

1. Cream butter and sugar

2. Add egg and vanilla

Spinach and Ricotta pasta bake

This is so simple and I haven't posted the link to this yet so here it is https://www.tamingtwins.com/spinach-and-ricotta-pasta-bake-recipe/

as advertised it does take only 30-40 minutes (depending on how many ppl are making it) and it tastes delicious.

2.

Buy

- https://inkassam.wixsite.com/boujeebackgrounds

Buy from my business and at least 1/3 of the money will go to charity

I'd be really grateful if you could recommend this to your friends and tell people about your purchase if you have bought from us.

With aesthetic digital backgrounds like these

Fan backgrounds like these

T-shirts with (digitally but still hand-) drawn art like these pictures

And prices from 85p (spring themed background on sale!) what have you got to lose?

Sorry for the self promo :)

3. Read

Books I have not to reviewed but enjoyed include - Suite Scarlet, The Harry Potter Series, The Percy Jackson Series, The Murder of Roger Ackroyd and Hickory Dickory Dock , The Good Girls Guide to Murder, One of us is Lying, The Confidence Code for Girls, Astrophysics for Young People in a Hurry

Join Extinction Rebellion

The Climate Crisis is real and its your choice to do something about it. If you join Extinction Rebellion you can receive updates on the events and rebellions planned and join your local group chat that discusses environmental problems or even join Zoom calls that discuss strategies.

Another option is to raise money to donate to environmental charities

Quite COVID safe ways to do this include

5. Draw

Something I like to draw are OCs or Original characters. These are just normally people that you can give personalities or draw in different scenarios if you want. They can help develop your ppl drawing art style. If you search up OC maker, these have lists of different features to give your characters to help you.

Hope you liked these recs , I will update this if i have anything else to add since its not the end of the month yet !
